Anthony Yarde will challenge Artur Beterbiev for his unified light-heavyweight titles in London tonight.

The British star returned to action with a keep-busy win over Stefani Koykov in November, but will not face arguably the toughest test of his professional career when he challenges for the IBF, WBC and WBO straps against Beterbiev. The Russian has not been defeated in his time in professional boxing, and has a perfect KO record of 18 in 18 wins.

Yarde will know that he will need a career-best performance to topple the Russian who is looking to set up an undisputed clash with his fellow countryman Dmitry Bivol.

Who do you think will win - Artur Beterbiev or Anthony Yarde? Let us know in the comments section below

Beterbiev: “I feel good. I hope on January 28 I will change a little bit (to turn into a monster). I said he looks like a bodybuilder because of his muscles. I don’t have this muscle and I didn’t say it to mean anything bad. I said it because he looks strong!

“In our camp we always try to be ready for different scenarios. If it is a tough fight we are going to be ready, we will be ready for whatever. I just try to do my best.”

Yarde: “I feel like I am always smiling. I am happy to be alive, happy to be at this stage of my life as well. I am a dog. When I get in that ring and start throwing my hands about, everyone knows what I can be like. If being an underdog does anything to me it is to give me that little push, that little urge.

“He has done a lot in the sport and that is why he should be respected. When we get in the ring there is no respect and you try and take the respect away from your opponent. It doesn’t matter now, my preparation is different now and I have learned since then as well. I am a different type of fighter with different life experiences. I am ready for Saturday."
